My son and I were at the game Saturday. The most impressive few minutes for Texas were defensive - RT called TO when OU tied the game late in the first half, and after that "conversation" Texas played the tightest in your face defense for the remainder of the half that I have seen from this team this season. They have that in them. Hunter's variability from a norm is so wide that Saturday's Hunter and low range Hunter are easily a ten point swing for the team. It sometimes seems as if average or normal Hunter does not exist, rather, we see a two phased creature who is either powered on or powered off.

OTF - Will the 2024 Offense Be Unstoppable?
MarkInAustin replied to CJ Vogel's topic in On Texas Football Forum
Running the 12 set probably gives up very little to running the 11 set for the passing game with Niblack. As much as 00 and 10 sets appeal to the imagination of many fans, they are open love letters to the defensive coordinators. With Blue, and/or Bolden, I agree the 21 sets give up nothing in the run game and virtually nothing in the passing game as and against the base 11 set. This off-season QE [and Arch] must reach a mutual comfort zone with three different sets and multiple skill players. The whole should be at least as good as the sum of the parts by the end of August, and greater than the sum of the parts as the season progresses. -
Totally off topic because I was just watching y'all on Coffee and Football discussing realignment. The colleges which might choose not to compete at the Biggest Boy level would likely include Vandy, Duke, Northwestern, Georgia Tech, Virginia, California, and Stanford, among others. But take those teams, add Rice and the Service Academies, and you have a Poison Ivy League of academic powerhouses that could play each other football on a par in the spring, with enough alumni to support a Spring League. Whadayya think, Gerry?
